Same agent. Same 180 homes. Very different day.
Meet Sarah, a property manager at a six-person agency. On one Tuesday she runs compliance from her inbox and a spreadsheet. On the other, Abide.Rent does the remembering.

Kettle on. 47 unread emails. Somewhere in there is the gas certificate for Tottington Road. Probably.
With Abide.RentKettle on. Today shows three things: one gas check to book, one rent review to send, one tenant question.
- Without
Opens the compliance spreadsheet. Two tabs disagree about the EICR on Parkhills Road. Nobody knows who updated which.
With Abide.RentThe EICR on Parkhills Road is flagged red with the date it lapsed and who has to act. One tap books the electrician.

Rings a landlord to ask whether he got the certificate email. He didn’t. Resends it. Asks him to confirm. He doesn’t.
With Abide.RentThe landlord already saw it in his feed of what the agency did this week: certificate added, given to the tenant. Nobody rings anybody.
- Without
Lunch at the desk, writing a Section 13 notice from last year’s template. Is the start date right? Not entirely sure.
With Abide.RentLunch away from the desk. The rent review sits ready: dates checked, three achieved lettings graded and adjusted, and the landlord warned the tribunal can go below today’s rent.
- Without
A tenant asks for her deposit certificate. Again. Twenty minutes in the shared drive.
With Abide.RentThe tenant opens it herself in her free login. You find out because the record says she did.
- Without
Finds a tribunal letter from three weeks ago under a pile. The landlord’s statement is due Friday. It is Thursday.
With Abide.RentThe referral’s statement deadline has been on Today since the directions came in. The draft statement is written from the review; she checks it and records what she sent.
- Without
The council emails about a licence condition. Panic. Where is the smoke alarm check from move-in day?
With Abide.RentThe move-in alarm test is on the record, dated, with the photo. Forwarded in under a minute.
- Without
Writes a sticky note: “PRS Database — sort before March??” Sticks it on the monitor with the other fourteen.
With Abide.RentEvery property has its PRS Database window and a register pack showing what is ready and what is missing. The fees are planned by month. Abide.Rent will not register for her; it makes registering quick.
- Without
On the sofa, still thinking about the EICR. Opens the laptop “just to check”.
With Abide.RentOn the sofa. A push alert: the landlord approved the rent review. Phone face down. Telly back on.
